Have Rash On The Body. Looked Like A Sunburn. Had A Fever 3 Weeks Ago. Suggestions?
Hi I have had a strange rash on my body. It starts out as a quarter sized round spot on my skin, pinkish in color, flat, looks a lot like a sunburn and then the spot gradually gets larger in a matter of days. I first noticed it about 2 weeks ago. I probably have about 8 or 9 on various parts of my body. No explanation, although I did have a fever for a couple of days about three weeks ago running between 101 and 102.
Hi rash all over the body after 3 weeks of fever can be dengue fever rash or chikengunya rash.first do platelet count to rule out dengue fever and if the rash is associated with pain it is chikengunya.treat symptomatically and apply calamine lotion
